2 program notes:

1. Today I sent home an assessment that I did with SK students, testing their knowledge of the alphabet letters and sounds for your information. This will help us target next steps for letters to practice in reading and writing.

We have begun journals. Here is my favourite journal from a JK student today.

Later on, the student changed her mind and said it wasn't me...but I'm pretty sure her mom doesn't have green glasses.

2. Library will be on Day 1 (Tuesdays for now). Ms. Oseghale is taking care of library for our class. Students' first Library books went home yesterday. I saw some early Halloween and Christmas themed books, but know that these are entirely student choice. Please read and enjoy your book together at home.

If you send the book back early in Mr. Zippy, we are happy to store them in the classroom until our next library period. However, if you miss returning your book, a new one will not be given until the following week's library period.  Mark Day 1 on your September calendar and I'll be sure to add it to October's newsletter.
